I have been looking for something like this too, and have not been satisfied by ACC (windows only, tabled output) or the jsqueeze efforts (bugs and java). So I started writing my own php-script. I haven't come as far as producing pdf yet and I'm not sure I see the need. CSS for print media makes

It looks great. What I would like to se is a little more emphasis on the artist name and album name, since that is the primary focus for me when browsing albums. Perhaps you could place them in two sepearte lines below the cover art. Many tracklists are longer than the size of the cover art

Yes, relative page numbers (A-5) is the way to go I think. You can't do without page numbering if you plan on an index or any sort of lookup table. While I never used it, it looks like PDF-API2 (on CPAN) can be used to generate a PDF. -- epoch1970

It's very pretty, but for my collection, the printout would be huge (and my collection is nowhere near as large as some here). I'd be interested in a more compact presentation, or at least the option to do it a bit smaller. There's a lot of wasted space on the pages. I do applaud your effort.
